When somebodyI know mentioned the blueness to a shop, the assistant came up

I am sceptical.

A 5W golf-ball type I got from LED Hut at the beginning of last year
had a hideous green cast, so bad that I lobbed it on a shelf and
forgot about it.
Later on I pressed it into use for a non-important area, and forgot
about it. Several weeks of intermittent useage later, it occurred to
me it was now showing properly white, the green having all gone.
